I have a Adobe Air app (AS3, not Flex) that has 2 windows. When I click away from them onto another desktop program, I get an "Deactivate" Event (as you would expect).
When I click on say Window#1 I get an "Activate" Event (as you would expect).
But when I go from Window#1 to Window#2, I get nothing. And I believe this is because the Air application is still the active program, Just a Different Window.
But I have the need to know when I go from 1 window to another.
The horrible solutions I have come up with so far is to have an onEnterFrame and check if the current window is the active window. But I would much prefer to do it a much better way that such a hack.
I have gone though Stage, NativeApplication and Native Window Events and none of them do what I need. Can anyone point me to another Event I may have overlooked?
Listen for window activation events directly on the NativeWindow object. (All display objects dispatch activation/deactivation events, but these are triggered by the application -- or SWF object in the browser -- getting or losing the OS focus.)
